The Rest is History

I have been in sales for my entire professional life of 30+ years. After all, even if someone does not pursue a “sales” career aren’t we really selling ourselves continually in our daily lives? Sales wasn’t my professional goal as I graduated with a major in Business Administration with a minor in Architecture with aspirations of following a career in construction management. I guess it is a fairly typical story of not being able to land an opportunity in my desired field after graduation and needed to work so…

I’ve been fortunate to have had a sales career that warranted calling on people from a variety of levels ranging from home owners, business owners all the way up to C-level executives and municipal management as well. It really allowed me to learn about people – how they think, process information and ultimately make decisions. To truncate this story allow me to jump ahead to 2013.

My wife and I were thinking about getting back into business ownership again and had been speaking with different people about several opportunities that we uncovered. It just so happens that a minister friend of ours was visiting one day and he had asked if I’ve ever heard about or considered the pursuit of headlight restoration as a viable option. I informed him that I was not aware that such an industry existed let alone hear of it! After we parted company I jumped on the compute immediately to do research and as they say “the rest is history”.
